scribed as the largest vehicles
ever to mo3r. • on Ontario High-
ways. The trailers will be 73
feet long, 10 feet wide and 11 1/2
feet high and weigh 20 tons each.
The delegates were told of the
requirements for the site and
the capacity. It is hoped to have
as many school children as pos-
sible view the caravan which will
require liaison throughout the
area as the caravan will not be
visiting every community.
It is requested that the host
town supply entertainment on a
stage at the site of the caravan
during its stay. The caravan will
open at 11:00 am. It was also
noted that while booths for dis-
pensing food will be allowed on
the site they must be located
300 feet from the entrance to the
caravan. It was suggested a civic
reception be arranged and pos-
sibly a parade scheduled to herald
the arrival of the caravan.
Delegates were also informed
of other events which will be
staged throughout the area. There
will be band tattoos and military
participation, Ontario touring
groups of the performing arts
and other events which will assist
areas in marking this event.
R. E. Ted Pooley chairman of
the Exeter Centennial committee
was among those making pro-
gress reports. He told members
that during the centennial year a
different organization will be re-
sponsible for events during each
month. He outlined the progress
made to date on the Exeter cen-
tennial project and the co-opera-
tion shown by all groups within
the town.
Four members of the Legion
Ladies' Auxiliary, president
Margaret Wragg, Olive Fergus-
on, Ellen Knight and Peg Hunter-
Duvar; Mrs. Larry Taylor, Mrs.
Wellington Brock, Mrs. Elmer
Bell, Gil Burrows, Terry Mc-
Cauley, Gib Dow, Ken Kerr and
Ted Pooley made up the Exeter
delegation.

and several other proposals were
discussed. The conference was
held to discuss future training
plans for the integrated forces.
Indications are that some bases
will be closed as fewer bases
will be required under the inte-
gration policy.
Group Captain Ockenden
stressed the fact that this is only
a proposal which may or may not
be acceptable to officials in Ot-
tawa. Closing the base could re-
sult in a savings of up to$1,000,-
000 in operating expenses.
The base was established as
part of the British Commonwealth
Air Training program during the
second World War.
Expo will open April 28 and
close six months later onOctober
27.
Horses and motor-scooter s
were approved by Grand Bend vil-
lage council Monday night as ap-
proval was given for the operation
of both of these popular types of
amusement.
Permission was given to Frank
Little, Goderich, who has operat-
ed riding stables in the village for
the past five or six years, to con-
tinue having his longer rides
routed across Highway 81, so as
to reach the trail south along the
Ausable River.
When some concern was ex-
pressed about safety for the hors-
es and riders crossing the road
due to the heavy traffic coming
from the Dragway, Mr. Little
noted that when the traffic was
heaviest there was little danger.
He noted that the Department of
Highways had decided against
posting a "horses crossing"
sign, since it was a flat crossing,
a good view, and no hazard.
Mr, Little also said Olathe had
operated a riding horse business
for 17 years and no one was ever
hit by a car. "If there's any
trouble", said he, "it's with the
drivers of cars, not with the
riders."
Permission was given for Mr.
Little to continue as in the past
for this one season. He intimated
that he had plans for some chang-
es next year.
A request from a Toronto man
for permission to operate a motor
scooter business from the loca-
tion occupied by Little Pigs of
Canada last year (between Beg-
ley's and the Village Inn), was
received. Council decided that
minimum fee for such abusiness
would be $50 per year for ten
scooters, and $5 per year per
scooter over that number.
A hearing in Sarnia on May 27
will be held on the Judge's plan
which is being put on the area
south of Lake Road along High-
way 21. Van Laughton the village
solicitor, predicted little argu-
ment concerning the plan, since
it coincided with the opinions of
property holders involved.
William Rendle, the village
sanitation inspector was request-
ed to inspect eating establish-
ments thoroughly before the
opening of the season.
Mrs. Margery Roberts was
hired as steno in the office of the
OPP detachment for the summer
at $1.50 per hour. Constable
Douglas Cursey was to report for
work on Tuesday, thus supplying
a second constable for the vil-
lage. This year Corporal Tom
McMillan will head the detach-
ment.
Clerk Murray A. DesJardins
was asked to prepare a by-law
increasing the interest rate on
unpaid taxes. At present the pen-
alty is one percent the day after
deadline, plus half of one percent

fined $20 on a similar charge.
The accused's car was stopped
when it was observed driving
slowly in Hay Township. A bottle
was tossed from the window of
the car when the constable was
approaching.
Robert Carlisle of Hensall was
also fined on a similar charge.
An OPP constable checked a car
behind the hotel in Hensall and
found the accused and 18 bottles
of beer in the car.
Failing to report an accident
cost Clarence Portinga of Kirk-
ton $15 and costs. The charge
was placed following an accident
in Usborne Township April 19
which resulted in personal injury
and damage estimated at $800.
The accused apparently lost con-
trol of his vehicle when passing
a car and struck a mail box.
The accused indicated he thought
all he had to do was report the
accident to the owner of the mail
box as the damage to the car
was his own responsibility. He
said he didn't understand the law
involved an accident of any kind.
Other charges heard by the
magistrate Tuesday involved
minor traffic infractions.

evitably come by going ahead?
Garnet Hicks also supported the
motion." We've got the kids —
what are we going to do in five
years time? Build jails?
The motion read that the Board
proceed providing the local share
of cost is not over $600,000.
Board member Iry Armstrong
was the only member who ar-
gued against the motion. He cited
two reasons for his decision, one
that the board did not have ap-
proval of the area inspector and
the other was the unsettled con-
dition at CFB Centralia. He had
earlier suggested that the board
wait at least two or three weeks
to find out what the situation
would be like at Centralia and
suggested in arguing against the
motion that the cost picture could
change within one or two years.
The letter of intent to proceed
is subject to the approval of
senior levels of government and
the contractor cannot start be-
fore these come through. Final
approval is needed from Ottawa
and it is estimated this will take
approximately six weeks. Ap-
proval is also needed fro:' the
Ontario Municipal Board which
will take from three to six weeks.
It is likely both these will be
Submitted at about the Same time.
each month thereafter (or 6 1/2
percent per year). The penalty
will be raised (effective January
1, 1966) to one percent the day
after deadline plus two-thirds of
one percent each month there-
after.
Council will pay $254.16 as a
share in the cost of a two-page
full colour advertisement in the
Lambton County industrial lands
Promotion book. The Chamber of
Commerce has agreed to pay
$175, to make up the total cost
of $429.16.

Arbor Day
at Usborne
It was Arbor Day at Usborne
Township school Monday and de-
spite the cool weather students
planted approximately 100 trees,
cut grass, planted a flower garden
and in general cleaned up the
school property. Smokey the bear
was on hand to give students a
few safety tips and tips on con-
servation.
Arbor Day is an annual event
sponsored by the Ausable River
Conservation Authority and is de-
signed to teach students the im-
portance of conservation by al-
lowing them to participate in this
through the planting of trees.
Some 100 Carolina poplars and
spruce trees were planted in the
windbreak which was started last
fall along the west boundary of the
school property. A few white ash
and maple trees were planted in
a hardwood woodlot in the corner
of the school property.
The windbreak serves a dual
purpose. It is an experimental
plot and when completed will
protect the school.

Enthusiasm
for Bazaar
Small communities that are
determined to grow and progress
owe much to the loyalty of the
local shoppers who help to sta-
bilize the economy of their towns
and villages,
The merchants, advertising in
the "Bazaar of Values" are ap-
preciating this fact and the ten
week campaign, now in progress
is their way of expressing their
appreciation, through featured
merchandise that are better buys
and through a renewed pledge of
better services.
At the same time, they remind
the buying public, that by patron-
izing local businesses the resi-
dents of the area towns and vil-
lages are heping their own well-
being. The money spent at home
remains at home and goes to-
wards community improvement.
A great deal of this money
goes towards your assessment
which lowers the taxes in the
community. Even more, the local
merchant is often called upon,
and is expected to donate funds
for other civic improvement pro-
jects that make life better in the
community.
Thus the wise buyer receives
a far better value for his shop-
ping dollar than is possible, would
he recklessly spend it out of the
district.
You can shop in your com-
munity with confidence. The
shopkeepers here are your
friends. Their purpose is to sup-
ply you with the best quality
merchandise at lowest possible
price with the comfort and con-
venience of local service, would
that become necessary.

Stephen refuses
use of dump
Stephen Township council has
refused to look after garbage
from the village of Grand Bend
and Bosanquet Township. In a
meeting last week the two muni-
cipalities were told that their
request for the use of Stephen
Township dump had been refused.
The two municipalities have
been looking for a new site for a
dump since Bosanquet Township
council ordered the present dump
closed because of the odor and a
fire hazard. The dump was lo-
cated on Highway 21 and was used
by both Grand Bend and Bosan-
quet.
